ŞIRNAK (DİHA) - In Cizre district of Şırnak where thousands of soldiers and dozens of tanks remain deployed for 9 days, attacks by state forces have left two more civilians dead.

Despite the intensified aggression, the popular self-rule resistance is growing as people remain determined to not allow state forces into their neighborhoods.

Doğan İşçi (32) has died after a cannon shell fired by a tank hit his house in Nuh neighborhood this evening. İşçi's body has been taken to Cizre State Hospital.

On the other hand, another civilian by the name of Mehmet Tekin was targeted by special operation police in the same neighborhood. Tekin was reportedly shot by a bullet in the eye, which left him dead.
